I can't see the point in continuing to use Flash once there are vendors clambering over each other to produce the best SVG plug-in and (since it's free) it will be built-in on Mozilla eventually. If there's no Flash creation tools at all for Linux, and there are already some steps towards SVG (though not AFAIK animation) it seems like it would be better to just create SVG from go -- but that's maybe not what you want to hear when you're about to do a Flash course.
